Why has Dabo not pulled Robert's offer?

Does Dabo know something we don't?
In the past he has not been shy about pulling an offer when a recruit is not fully committed to his commitment.
If RN is not coming to Clemson, that that scholarship could/should be offered to the #2 or #3 player. Or to a player that did not blossom until his senior year.

I have a feeling it has something to do with the fact that he is the consensus #1 recruit in the nation and that he knows much more about the situation than any fan.

be a different story. I think our coaches have everything under control when it comes to recruiting.

I think all of the uncertainty is due to the Mrs. and to the Media. Between RN and our staff, he must still be solid beyond doubt. Until our coach staff proves otherwise, I trust their character to be consistent or until they communicate that indeed there are different rules for different players.

to attending cu's biggest, official recruiting weekend, then told the coaches he was going to tennessee instead. this after cu stood by him after his arrest.
the other was earlier this year; the mcdonald kid from miami who was involved with jon drummond.
For example, former South Florida Express assistant Jon Drummond told "Outside the Lines" and others that he was the go-between for Express players and college coaches. That was before head coach Brett Goetz said Drummond would not be returning next season, because he violated a "Code of Conduct" Goetz makes all coaches sign. Goetz's "Code of Conduct" essentially states that his coaches cannot use their relationships with prospects for a profit.
Drummond told ESPN that "everyone knows coaches are being paid something extra to bring recruits to campus" while denying he's one of them.

There's nothing wrong treating a 5-star differently than a 3-star.
Coaches don't have to be "fair" - society is just making everyone weak sissies that can't handle the truth when they demand "fairness" in situations like this.

times when the fact a coach cant mention a recruit is a good thing. This is one of those times. Dabo would be bombarded with questions

He pulls them if they secretly go and not tell him

When they commit they are told to tell the coaches ifthey are gonna take a visit. As long as they tell the oaches they dont pull the offers. If they go secretly and Dabo finds out then he pulls the offer. I believe that is fair.
